Yes, I think excluding "ANY", but including "B" and any of its superclasses is what would be most useful. I realize it will take longer to compute, but I do think it would be a useful tool. + seth ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
